stable revision? (woody 3.0r2)



Hello,

I just had to "defend" the debian policy of not altering the original
distribution but to offer securtiy updates archive.

On the one hand, I can understand Debian, which says, that it is euqally
good for the (informed) user, to use two archives (even better for the CD
user), on the other hand, i can also understand that the archive with old
program versions is not, what a user expects from a quality distribution.

In the past, we solved this with various updates to the stable distribution
(afaik mostly based on security-team and joeys work).

Is there any plans for a 3.0r2?

Should we put this on some more official ground, and have a "stable-release
maintainer"? who should do something like monthly releases based on
security-team work?

Gruss
Bernd
